2 The Phoenix Rebirth! (1/2)
”All hail the return of the Overlord Kaia (p.r.o.nunciation- Kai, ya)!”
”Hail Overlord Kaia!!” the armed group of white knights shouted in unison.
”Is the Highlord in?”
”Yes, Overlord Kaia, please follow me.”
'I wonder if she will be mad at the results? I could not have known that Hittan was so powerful that he would succeed in his plans to affect fate. I cannot help but wonder where is he? Maybe it was our fate to have parted like that so many years ago. But I hope you can see the bigger picture and change your outlook Hittan.'
”Kaia! You failed! Why?!”
The Knight that escorted Kaia bowed his head in worry and quickly exited the hall. Kaia did not prevent him and simply open the Alicorn engraved door herself and entered the great room. Where she saw Kaija (p.r.o.nunciation- Kay, ya) sitting on the Highlord throne with a worried look on her face.
”Sister, I did all I could to prevent him from going through with his plans. But in the end, he vanished before the final blow.”
”Vanished? Explain.”
”He surprised me by taking three strikes from the Sword of Alexandrite and with each strike, something new was revealed.”
”3 Strikes, new what? What would surprise you of all people in this day and age?”
”He had Ruby blood…”
”Dragon blood? Okay, a bit surprising. But only a bit, what next?”
”If you only let me finish speaking sister you'll have a better understanding of the events.”
”... Sorry, continue.”
”Okay, hehe. The second strike hit his ribcage revealing Sapphire bones and yes, he did use Dragon Reflection techniques. I suspected a Corundum Dragon pract.i.tioner but his name was never presented as one of theirs. However, the last strike was the most surprising as it pierced his heart, revealing it to be Emerald.”
”3 different primary stones in one person? What would that make him?”
”Well, the old goat was even more surprising than that…”
”Kaia, you know you're his age too, right?”
”Yes! But you don't have to say it, gees.h.!.+”
”Okay, Okay, what happened next?”
”He refused to die… he wanted to see 'her' again…”
”... His actions forced our actions. It was a little too late for him to have regrets, don't you think so sister?”
”... Sadly, yes… But, it was then that a white Phoenix shadow appeared and with a flash, he was gone. I could not sense him on that plane or any world in the Gilead System.”
”... We can only keep an eye out for him and pray his actions have not caused irreparable damage to our future and that of Gilead's people.”

”Pus.h.!.+ Push Onora you can do this!”
'What's happening here… where am I? … Onora? ...that's my mother's name... But she's been dead for many many years now!'
”Final push Onora, you can do it, I know you can!”
'That's my father too? Egil?'
WHOOs.h.!.+ A Flash of white light!
”Look Onora! It's the symbol of the White Phoenix! … it looks a little like a Dragon too!”
”Let me see my baby!”
”Oh, sorry, here.”
”Come here my darling, mommy's got you. Oh, look it's a boy, then I guess. .h.i.ttan will be your name. Hahaha, looks like I got my protector and you'll have to wait for your daughter a bit longer Egil.”
”I don't care, he looks like me! Hahaha!”
”But not too much, ha!”
”Hahaha!!”
'Well, I can't say I wasn't born from a loving family… I missed you guys.'
